Founders, what's the best advice you've ever been given?

I love this that the comedian Sara Pascoe received from her father. She was going to get a teaching qualification so she could pay her rent. 

He said, “Don’t do a teaching qualification. Make it work or starve to death.”

He essentially said, if you have a backup plan, it’s far less likely that you’ll get to do what you want to do.
